リーダーに必要とされる見極め能力（リーダーの資質）を熟考

2008年8月30日に日本でレビュー済み

この書籍を読み，再度「Only the Paranoid Survive」（邦題：インテル戦略転換，1997年 / 七賢出版）を読み返した．ここからリーダーの見極め能力（リーダーの資質）について考えてみた．インテルは今でこそ大企業の仲間入りを果たし，米国を代表する企業となっているが，1990年代はまだその域には達していなかった．その機転となった大きな出来事は，創業当時から取り組み，開発のパイオニアとなった「DRAM」からの撤退があげられる．だが，それ以上に「RISC（縮小命令セットコンピュータ，簡易命令のみしかないコンピュータ）」　対　「CISC（複雑な命令を数多く備えたコンピュータ，複雑な回路形式）」　論争での　「RISC」からの撤退も大きな転機となっている．

情報が今のようにマルチに入らなかった1990年代においても，種々の情報が経営トップには入ってくる．その中で，　「シグナル」　と　「ノイズ」　を的確に見極めることは会社経営上，これまで以上に重要になってきている．インテルの場合，当時売れ筋の　SISC 型 386 （マイクロプロセッサーの型番）を486 に継続させるべきか（互換性のあるチップ），（互換性はないが高速性能を誇る）i860 に転換すべきか，社内はもとより，業界を２分する論争の下，判断できかねる状況にあった．インテルは当初両製品を発売したが，開発リソースの２分化（インテルといえど技術者リソースは限られる），開発費用，工期，生産ラインの制約などの問題から，RISC型マイクロプロセッサーの生産から撤退した（当時の経営判断はかなりのもの）．現状（2008年現在）のインテルが世界指折りの企業となっていることから当時の選択が正しかったことは証明されているであろう．この判断を行ったのが，グローブ（技術者系経営者）であった．インテルの繁栄にグローブの経営判断が大きく影響していたこと，加えて，グローブの経営者としての資質が並々ならなっかたことは容易に予想できる．

ここで，経営判断における「シグナル（採るべき情報）」と　「ノイズ（無視すべき情報）」　の判別の重要性は，ビジネスの行方を左右し，会社経営にも影響する可能性を示唆する．三流のリーダーは，とりあえず何でも，「やればいいじゃないですか」，「やめるべきときに考えればよい」　と無駄な仕事とやるべき仕事の選別を行わない．小生のまわりにもいるし，みなさんの回りにもこの手の事なかれ上司は多いと思う．このような事なかれ上司には，時間，ヒト，カネ　が有限な資源であり，無駄な業務がやるべき業務の足かせになることを理解できない．この手の上司を持った場合は，業務効率は下がるし，組織としての発展は期待できない．インテルの場合，グローブは高性能チップである RISC 型よりも，互換性の高い顧客ニーズを満たす CISC 型にマーケットニーズがあるとし，リソースを集中（亜流は切り捨て），顧客志向での開発を重視した．売れるモノを世に出したい，経営的判断に徹した．今でこそ当たり前の話のように感じるが，当時としては凄い判断だったと考える．三流のリーダーが同じ判断をできたかと言えば，そうは思えない．

技術者が経営者になった段階で，このように採るべき判断が大きく違ってくることが注目に値するのだ．当時のグローブに自分が成ったつもりで考えてみると，多くの技術者系経営者は RISC 型チップの開発継続を示唆したに違いない，もしくは RISC 型チップの開発撤退を判断できなかったのでは無いだろうか？　技術経営に関わる多くの問題提起とそれに対する考え方が本書には盛り込まれている．

READ this book - LEARN about a MASTER!!!!

2007年3月8日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This is a book that every businessman confronted with the problems of rapid change needs to read. Intel the giant technology company is Andy Grove, and Andy Grove is Intel. More than any other single individual, Grove left his footprint on this company. He started off as Intel's 3rd hire; the first two were Gordon Moore, and Bob Noyce, two other Silicon Valley legends. By the time Grove was finished there were tens of thousands of employees.

You might recall that Gordon Moore, Andy's mentor is the creator of the famous "Moore's Law". There are many variations of Moore's Law, and Moore never called it a law by the way. Essentially it means that the computer power that can be placed on a chip doubles every 18 months, some say 2 years, and the cost drops by half. The law has basically held up since its inception in 1965.

Richard Tedlow, the author is a full Professor at Harvard Business School. He has obviously put his heart and soul into this book. Andy Grove did not read this book until it was finished, and published. He did not want to get into a shoot-out about what was in the book. You might recall that Grove wrote several books himself. One of them had the great title, "Only the Paranoid Survive". I believe this biography is better than the books Grove wrote.

Grove has stated that the author knows more about him, than he knows about himself. Upon reading the book, Grove could not figure out how the author was able to obtain so much information about him. In the end, this is what an author is supposed to do, isn't it? The vital concepts that I took out of Tedlow's writings are:

1) Here's a man that should have died three times before he got to America. Born in Budapest, Hungary in 1946, as a Jewish born child he survives the Nazi invasion that included the extermination of 2/3rds of the Jewish population. He develops Scarlet fever, which should have killed him, and then the Russians defeat the Germans, and Andy survives the Russians who killed thousands of additional Hungarians.

2) Andy takes the enormously difficult step of leaving everything, his parents, his homeland, his friends, his groundings, and literally walks out of Hungary in the middle of the night during the Hungarian Revolution in 1956. Keep in mind, there's no Internet, no television pictures of America, nothing to base a move on. He simply demonstrates undaunted courage in walking away from everything that is familiar.

3) He makes it to the US, lives with an aunt and uncle in the Bronx, and goes to City College of NY because it's free and he has zero money. Graduating number 1 in his engineering class, he goes to California, and winds up at Berkeley where he earns a Ph.D.

4) He knew how to find MENTORS though, and this is a vital part of the book. You find great men, and MANAGE UP the relationship. From world renowned college professors, to the best known technical geniuses in the business world which include legends Robert Noyce, and Gordon Moore, Andy Grove knew how to hitch his wagon to STARS.

Grove walks out of Fairchild Semiconductor to form Intel with Moore and Noyce with the financing provided by Arthur Rock, the most famous venture capitalist in Silicon Valley history bar none. Moore and Noyce get all the stock and Grove gets to buy in at a price ten times higher, even though he's the number three guy in the company. He handled it well though. It did not seem to interfere with what he had to do. A lot of people would have had problems with the stock distribution from day one. I do Venture Capital as part of my business, I know.

Here's a man who puts his nose to the grindstone, and comes up a winner. There are several hundred pages devoted to how Andy Grove transforms himself out of necessity into a businessman, something very few people in Silicon Valley know anything about. While the two big guys are getting all the credit, it's Grove who keeps the place alive during the massive up-and-down cycles that this industry experienced over 2 plus decades.

You could very much make the case that if Andy Grove did not exist, than Intel would have never survived to be the company we all recognize today as the number one producer of sophisticated microprocessors in the world. It's really all Grove. Science, and technology will only take you so far. In the end, you have to make a product that people, or companies want to buy. You have to make it reliable, and affordable.

Moore and Noyce could create such microprocessors without Andy Grove. Could they replicate them tens of thousands of times perfectly without Grove, not in a million years? Grove's internal gift was his ability to take his own massive brainpower, and be flexible enough to apply it to areas outside his expertise, or circle of competence, as Warren Buffett likes to talk about.

In closing, I went through the whole book, and circled the words and phrases that the author used to describe Grove. Read some of these: He did not hesitate, he wasn't frozen with fear. He had a survival strategy hardwired into him. He moves fast, is decisive, and effective. He is not weighed down by the past. He learned a tough, brusque, no-nonsense behavior.

When you are done reading this book, you will have lived in this man's shoes for a while. You will know what it was like to live Andy Grove's life. You can try on that life if you will, and see if this is the sort of life you would like to have lived. That's what great reading is all about, isn't it?

Enjoyable but Disappointing

2007年5月12日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Being an immigrant myself, I always regard Andy as one of the most admirable models. In fact, that was the main reason that I enjoyed reading this book, from cover to cover. However, after finishing it, I've found that I have been left with repeated scorecards of Intel's business performance but not enough descriptions and portraits about Andy himself, about his personality, how he articulated his ideas, how he got work done, and what he actually did. I've found cases that the author just gave blank statements about Andy without explanations or examples. For example, what arguments did Andy bring up that made him from being denied to being allowed to enter US, or simply by playing tough? How did he persuade a quiting key employee to change his mind, or simply by offering more money? What was the case that Andy won an argument even he knew he was wrong? and so on. You'll notice those emptiness when you read them. I think the book would have been much better in help readers understand Andy if the author could have dug a bit deeper in presenting him. Overall, this is a decent book, just not satisfying my curiosity much.

Don't quit on Hungary! Get on your heels and help them!

2010年10月9日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Andrew Grove needs to grow emotionally and stop hanging on to his bad memories about Hungary and its people. He acts like he is the only person suffered from the the storm of the Hungarian history. Staying home was not easy either subjected to the torturing of the communist and secret police, living a day by day surviving life. What Mr. Grove is suffering from is his stubbornness hanging on to his anger. Deeply inside of him he wants to go back so much but he does not know how to do it. Many Hungarians left their country and settled in the four corner of the world just like he did. One thing they all had in common is that they fled from communism to the "Free World" where no ideology or physical power can limit their thinking and opportunities for self-realization. He should use his power and wealth to reach out to the country where his parents and his ancestors were born and lived to make his farewell from this World easier.
The Hungarian higher education needs lots of financial help to be able to get on the list of the top 100 universities. Just to name one area where he can help.

A tome in need of heavy edit

An important book due to the subject matter. Way too much detail for my taste, and quite repetitive. Five hundred some pages.
